“Muslim group’s officials invited to State of the Union,” by Harper Neidig, The Hill, January 11, 2016:

Two officials from the Council on American-Islamic Relations will be attending the State of the Union address Tuesday as guests of Democratic lawmakers.

Reps. Zoe Lofgren (Calif.) and Alcee Hastings (Fla.) will both be hosting representatives from CAIR chapters in their respective states, the group announced Monday.

Lofgren will be bringing Sameena Usman, a government relations coordinator in the San Francisco office, while Hastings will host Nezar Hamze, the chief operating officer of the nonprofit’s Florida branch.

The announcement comes days after Rep. Keith Ellison (D-Minn.), the first Muslim elected to Congress, challenged Speaker Paul Ryan (R-Wis.) to bring a Muslim American as one of his guests to the speech.

“This is an opportunity to really drive the point home that there are no Americans who are suspect just based on their religious identity, that all Americans are welcome in the people’s house,” Ellison said in an interview with The Hill.

Demoratic National Committee Chairwoman Debbie Wasserman Schultz (D-Fla.) has also urged Democratic lawmakers to bring Muslims to the speech as a rebuke to what she sees is anti-Islamic language from the right.

“The rhetoric and vitriol that has been targeted at this community has been absolutely outrageous and unacceptable,” Wasserman Schultz said at a news conference according to The Sun-Sentinel.

“And as a member of a minority religion myself, one that has faced persecution throughout our existence, to me the idea that we would stand idly by and ignore that and not stand up and use our voices to stand up for our brothers and sisters in the Muslim-American community was just unacceptable.”

Yet Muslims have not faced persecution throughout their existence, and are not facing it now.

Democrats can’t see any difference between good and evil. Their PC pink color glasses show everybody in the same color – everybody is good and there is no evil in this world except perhaps Republicans!! God save us from these traitors!

You are so right.
For leftists 2 rules:
Rule 1 :everybody is nice and beautifull ( except republicans, occidental nationalists, etc..)
Rule 2 : if they are not nice,refer to rule 1 (not valid for republicans and alike)

I’ve been studying Israel’s various wars with its neighbours. Memoirs of retired intelligence and military people etc.
The overwhelming common ground of thoughts about the Arab mistakes, is that the Arabs made assessments based on wishful thinking.
This trait is alive and well in the minds of the ‘Leaders’ of Western Europe.
Sure wishful thinking underpins many aspects of life including cosmetics, but you don’t apply caustic soda (Muslim migrants) to your face hoping for an improvement in skin tone!

Agreed, Adrian. As George Kennan observed, Russia looks upon its neighbors as vassals or enemies, whether under Czars, First Secretaries or Putin. Anyone extolling Putin, should ask, let’s see here, Poles, Estonians, Latvians, Lithuanians, Czechs, Slovaks, Romanians, Georgians, Ukrainians (especially western Ukrainians), and so many others what they think of Putin. The answer would not be a pretty one.

thanks Wellington! yes, yes, Russian Empire has a lot to answer for, including the present police state against its own zombified people… anyone holding up Putin as someone to admire would do well to reread the Quran and Ibn Ishaq and see the parallels with Muhammed… the same blind obedience and despotic rule through fear and an insane vision of Paradise – “Russia, the Third Rome…” “Russia, the Savior of Mankind” (just look at the maniacal writings of Alexander Dugin) To extol Putin in the battle against Islam is like calling on Lucifer to fight Satan…

Put the blame on the US neocon regime changers who used some Russophopic, neo-Nazi street thugs to overthrew the democratically elected president of Ukraine and installed a pro LGBT US-backed puppet government in Ukraine and the result is that Ukraine becomes another failed state.

The idea that it is gay Americans and not Putin trying to destroy independent Ukraine shows just how delusional “Christianblood” really is.

The truth is that Russia has *always*–as Wellington notes–regarded neighboring nations as their own private fiefdom.

This ended with the fall of the Soviet Union, but Putin has been trying to reestablish it with his aggression toward Georgia and Ukraine–and would gladly extend it to the free nations of Eastern Europe if he could.

Your words are contradicting! And also “human rights” is just another strategy to push an American hegemonic agenda on others. If US loves human rights why then is she in bed with Saudi Arabia where thousands of innocent people are publicly beheaded every year?
Shame!

Oh, the US does a lot of bad things in the name of oil (or stupid, because essentially we could just use NA oil, and approve Keystone..) . – But , essentially America’s one of the most free societies in the world and that’s why it’s beautiful.
The beauty is we can disagree but we still have a common cultural heritage that says we should settle our disagreements by talking to each other , negotiating, voting, and resolving matters rationally through arguement, spiritual/religious appeals, or logical proof. In short, we can sort it out (or not), and live together without violence.

I think in the coming years, we need to get together. The left and right need to stop fighting. Even though you don’t agree with someone, there is that common cultural DNA that stretches back 2000+ years. We’ll need allies. We can’t be fractious or just go it alone.
I can understand why people on the right feel betrayed. We’ve gone too far in making excuses for the wrong kind of people. When the inevitable war comes, I know what side I’m on – I think honestly they’ll be a new synthesis. I keep thinking about Generation Identitare. Beyond the 68’ers , or in short the naive baby boomer hippy dippy generation, people are more pragmatic, hopefully, and realist.

There were dozens of aggressive Western hostilities against Holy Russia through the centuries and to mention a few of them the earliest one is Evean the Mongols, who destroyed Kievan Rus in the 13th century but were eventually driven out and defeated by heroic Russian forces. Other invaders include Western Teutonic knights, Roman Catholic Poles, Lithuanians, Turks, Swedes, Germans, the French Invasion of Russia in 1812, not to mention the Entente in 1918-1920, or the Japanese from 1918 to 1922 and Hitler’s genocidal gigantic “Barbarossa” operation that started in 1941 and all of them eventually fared badly and we specially know how (German Aryan Exceptionalism) ended up in the hands of heroic Russian defenders who lost over ten million soldiers and more civilians in the struggle against Western-backed Russophopic fascism.

Another Western-backed aggression against holy Russia was in the so-called Crimean War (1854-56) when an Alliance of France, Britain and Sardinia backed islamic Turks known then as the (Ottoman Empire) attacked Russia. The same hatred of Russia dominates among today’s Western societies and you still see them allied with the Turks and other islamic jihadists trying to destroy Russia even today as we speak. But that will not happen and it will never happen. Russia will always defeat its barbaric islamic enemies and their Russophobic Western backers.

(if I may ask a foolish question, what is wrong with American Hegemony?)

Don vito, American hegemony sucks. It spreads moral relativism, it destroy Christianity, common sense and the traditional ways of life and replaces those old traditions with an atheistic moral relativist “LGBT” agenda, and it produces political-correctness, secular liberalism and it hugely emboldens and gives a great encouragement to islamic jihadism and it supports islamic take over of societies.

@Christianblood thank you for your reply, I would have to disagree with the points you bring up, as examples of American Hegemony. The examples you cite are indeed, excellent example of political reality in todays America, I would argue though, the examples are from the dhimmicrat party, and various leftwing, Marxist=Leninist union, and limousine liberals, Hollywood liberal cabal that exists in the USA. Just to help me to better understand what you are advocating, Could you explain, to me, the differences between American Hegemony and Russian Hegemony. What are their respective strengths and weaknesses

Things must be pretty bad in 55 Savushkina Street in St. Petersburg, Komrad, no?

I urge everybody to ignore posts on this JW site by Russian troll called “Christianblood” , who under the guise of anti-Islam is actually pushing his disgusting pro-Putin propaganda… another Kremlin disinformation tactic.

He is definitely not worth responding to… there are real problems to be addressed, not distractions like “Christianblood” (btw, your moniker was the first giveaway…)

No personal attacks please. ‘Christianblood’ have some great insights
and perspectives and his criticism of US & Western governments is very legitimate and true. We all know America and the West are allied with the Turks, Saudi Arabia, Qatar and are aiding various islamic jihadist groups that are murdering Christians in Libya, Iraq and in Syria and beyond. This is not Russian propaganda it is a fact and we cannot deny it.

Remember arrogant Germans thought they were exceptional (Aryan) nation and believed in (German Exceptionalism) just as America thinks herself as an “exceptional” nation today and we all know know where that extreme “exceptional” arrogance led to the Germans: Watch: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zeL_nNT-oDs

To Christianblood- Thank you for posting that video of Vladimir Putin in church. He is a Christian man who obviously values his faith in Jesus Christ. We need more men of faith (the philosophy of ethical cultures does not count) in politics like him in America. Amen.

“And as a member of a minority religion myself, one that has faced persecution throughout our existence, to me the idea that we would stand idly by and ignore that and not stand up and use our voices to stand up for our brothers and sisters in the Muslim-American community was just unacceptable.”

She appears to have absolutely no idea that it is Muslims who are attacking Jews in the streets of Europe and who seek the destruction of Israel.

And it is not Muslims who are being terrorized–rather it is Muslims who are terrorizing Infidels–most especially Jews.

I just want to say how disgusted I am as a feminist and a democrat to be associated with this group of people. I think I will always be a feminist, as freedom is the most sacred human value. As for left wing or a democrat, I am reconsidering that.

Islam must go. It is death, a bane to the planet. After watching an “educational” video about a 10 year old boy from Sweden talking about how the “kuffar must die” and “all women must wear veils or be raped”.. well.. I think that says it all. If you really have any questions about what they have in mind for us, take a look at pictures of the Armenian Genocide and crucified christian girls.. (that is how you go to heaven, fools, may you BURN in hell..)

You don’t have to be a Democrat or a leftist to be for women’s rights, Christine. I know many conservative women, including my mother, sister and wife, and they embrace sexual equality without the whining, the victim-oriented mentality, the male bashing and the antipathy towards the West which is so characteristic of so many feminists in the West. Oh yeah, they also don’t look the other way, or even make excuses for, as leftist feminists aplenty have, at the true misogyny that is endemic to the Islamic sphere of mankind.

That is very true. It seems modern feminism has lost the message and become toxic, another enabling vehicle for a patriarchial invader.

I’m just sending everyone the Templar march. It’s inspiring – especially since it looks like we’re pretty much locked into a war for our ancestral homelands for the next century or so (if not longer). I’m relearning cultural pride 🙂https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b11-37Me_a4

I respect the right wing – it is often right, especially in these days. Western culture is a synthesis and a debate. It’s been like this since the beginning. Freedom is beautiful. Tyranny, especially religous tyranny, is ugly. We have the freedom to argue, to believe or not, to rationally understand the universe, or seek repentance and god through faith. You are responsible for the state of your mind and spirit, so long as you do not interfere with others.

I don’t think we can completely forget multiculturalism. We face a war against 1/4th of the planet, ultimately, religious fanatics who seek absolute domination. We need allies in this war. Han China. Hindu India. Russia. Yes, no, really , they’re not perfect, but they have the same problems we do. In renewing our own pride, please don’t throw out our (fairly legendary) ability at trade, persusion and tactical diplomacy. It’s a long war – and an ugly one. I think it’s going to get worse, maybe a lot worse, before it gets better.

I would argue, Christine, that the term “feminism” has been so co-opted by the left that it has become a term that should only invite derision anymore. One can be for women’s rights without being a feminist. Modern feminism can now essentially be equated with leftist thinking about society in general and about gender in particular. The term has lost virtually any positive meaning it once may have had.

As for multiculturalism, I would assert that it should be placed on the trash heap of history. One can admire other cultures without being multicultural. Multiculturalism is both a lie and an hypocrisy. It is a lie because it claims all cultures are essentially equal and equally worthy of respect. This is simply untrue. For instance, no culture developed on the island of New Guinea even remotely equals the cultures of ancient China or ancient Greece. It is an hypocrisy because those who embrace multiculturalism make one exception about all cultures being equal and that exception is Western Civilization, which multiculturalists regularly denigrate and mock, even though the West accomplished more than any other civilization in history, some of these accomplishments being the invention of democracy, the invention of philosophy, the development of the scientific method, the production of the most astounding technology that any civilization has ever developed.(look around your world and when you see computers, television, radio, cars, planes, railroads, spacecraft, et al. it was all developed by one civilization—-the West), a capacity like no other civilization in history to apologize for its wrongdoings and to make amends for these wrongdoings (when has the Islamic world ever apologized for anything, even though it has so much to apologize for?) and the development of women’s rights unequaled by any other civilization or society.

There has entered into modern leftism strains of totalitarian thought. The silly hate speech codes on college campuses serves as one example here. Another is how conservative speakers are often shouted down when trying to speak. When was the last time you heard of a left-wing speaker shouted down, unless it was by those even further to the left of that particular speaker? The true liberals today, those who really are for freedom, can now be found among modern conservatives. Increasingly the modern left is becoming fascist and highly destructive of liberty. No wonder so many leftists have made common cause with Islam, yet another freedom-crushing ideology.

“The attacks in Cologne were horrific. The responses – both by officials and by the armies of Islamophobes and xenophobes who have jumped at the chance to condemn Muslim and migrant men as savages – have also been horrific…”

See? Rape and the condemnation of rape are both “horrific”.

Witless false moral equivalence. She implies that men in the West are just as sexist as are Muslims–despite the fact that the rape epidemic sweeping Europe is entirely Muslim men.

Actually, that we have such people in our government is telling of how good we are as a nation. It is not traitorous when someone who is so good that bad dies not register in their minds. It is a testament to our righteousness that the best of us have so little malice that the thought of it is alien to the human condition.

These people have not had to witness Nazi atrocities like little babies being blown up in the name of the fuhrer. They are immune to the unspeakable horror that is life under sharia law. Their only crime is absolute and willful ignorance.

God bless them, for they have yet to wake up, let alone face the sunlight.

What Kool Aid did these folks drink? This literally gets worse by the minute. Every time Wasserman, Kenny [Phiily Mayor], Lofgren, and Hastings opens their mouth, more unbelievable verbal diarrhea spews forth.

If Speaker Paul Ryan (R-Wis.), and the Republican leadership have any brains and back bone at all, they will invite Influential Jewish Republicans to State of the Union address. If the Republican leadership got out in front and publically supported both minority and majority religions who peacefully coexist with American values it would send a clear message to the American voters that the leadership is listening, and they will not be bullied by Islamic public relations spin masters and terrorist supporters like CAIR.

The hell with CAIR… instead, why doesn’t Obama bring along members of the bereaved San Bernardino victims families to his STOTU speech tonight? But then, Mr. President, it was never about facts for you, was it? What u and the rest of the Lefties are really about is manufacturing demagogic faith from your followers.

Yes! Or why doesn’t he invite that hero cop who bravely led the San Bernardino survivors out of that building, saying, “Don’t worry, I’ll take a bullet before any of you!” Obama is morally bankrupt and a disgrace.

The DUMBOCRATS are being mind-controlled by the ISLAMANIA crowd. The MUSLIMPOOPIES have used their mental twisting expertise for over 1.4K years to get their way. That’s why they always carry a false smile of arrogance!

A MENTAL THOUGHT/WORD CAN BE VERY DISTRUCTIVE!

America should be aware of this silent and serious threat!

What Veritas says (January 12, 2016 at 9:35 am) is something what we as AMERICAN’S should seriously ponder upon:

“The rising influence of Islam on US politics and society requires more than just physical weapons to counter this type of warfare if America doesn’t want to follow in the footsteps of Europe.”

Is there anyone else who gets sick to their stomach every time they read an article like this? Why are these criminals being wined and dined at the White House? President Oh-bomb-us and Shrillary Clinton are two evil and dangerous individuals leading this country down the path to Islamization. For the love of God, people, VOTE REPUBLICAN, before it’s too late.

I hope it is Trump. I am tired of the usual nonsense from the standard cast of political characters; they all talk doublespeak, except for Trump. I want a real change and Trump will bring that much needed change to our country!

Just Like Ambassador Chris Stevens and “the soldiers she refused to send help to fought for their lives for over 8 straight hours awaiting a rescue that was never sent.”

If you haven’t seen the photos of the torture that AMB. Stevens endured, do a quick internet search. You’ll be sick to your stomach, but I doubt you’ll still feel sorry for Hillary who had to sit in an air conditioned room on a cushy seat while being grilled with annoying questions.

And just think… AMB. Stevens was one of her closest friends (according to her!) Just think what she’ll do for you and me!

“……over 8 straight hours awaiting a rescue that was never sent.”
—————-

Hillary is the slime that covers the surface of the fetid pool called the Democratic Party.
Hillary who is strongly influenced by Huma and other Muzzies would have done anything and sacrificed anyone NOT TO RISK OFFENDING MUSLIMS.

the FILM
Upon hearing that Muslims might have been offended by a film, she no doubt set out on a course of proving that she was not like those Islamophobe film makers. How could she possibly dare risk advocating for a rescue attempt if it might possibly offend Muslims that infidel soldiers were to defend other non-Muslims against local Muslims? Once on this course, their was no way to back out without admitting she made a mistake.
Yet, life is full of ironies. Hillary tries to instigate ISIS against Trump hoping that they will take him out and yet if she is elected she will probably be at the top of their hit list when her usefulness runs out. This would be like the same situation when a drug addicted person lashes out with deadly violence against the very person who stood by that drug addict and (had no more to give) after all others have long ago left the scene.

Muhammad told his followers to obey the laws of the land in which they live as long as those laws do not compel them to commit some sort of sin. He also told them that if they live in a land which is not governed fully in accordance with the laws of Allah, once Muslims become powerful enough they are to make the laws of the land fall into compliance with Allah’s will. Currently, Muslims are not in a position to be able to make the necessary changes to the laws of the United States so they must observe U.S. laws and thus they are able to serve honorably and faithfully in the U.S. armed forces (as long as they are not ordered to do something which they would consider a sin).

The thing to keep in mind is that this puts an eventual expiration date on certain laws of the U.S. and parts of the U.S. Constitution ……. like the part about the the U.S. government NOT favoring one religion over another. Allah in the Quran has told Muslims that they are to fight until all religion is for Allah and that the ONLY religion acceptable to Allah is ISLAM. This leaves Muslims with no choice but to work toward changing the U.S. Constitution to make Islam the state religion whenever they gain the ability to do so ….. with other religions allowed only under the dhimmi pact and payment of the jizya.

Do Democrats understand this? I don’t think the majority of them do. I don’t think the majority of Americans do …. and that includes the majority of American Muslims (for the time being). However, once the American Muslim population grows large enough (which Obama and the Democrats will strive to bring about) there will be those who will look at the the Quran and Muhammad’s words and will begin to agitate for bringing U.S. laws into compliance with Allah’s will. In the U.S. those with the most votes win. Once the Muslim population in the U.S. reaches a critical point the current U.S. Constitution and freedom of religion will pass into history …. unless we are smart enough to take the necessary measures to keep it from happening OR unless Muslims decide that the idea of equality for EVERYONE and the guarantee of freedom for ALL RELIGIONS are so precious to them that they are willing to ignore the words of Allah and Muhammad. Now, I ask you, how likely is that?

So telling that Democrats would welcome CAIR to Congress but not last March Netanyahu. I ceased a while ago looking upon the leadership of the Democratic Party as having America’s best interests at heart. In fact, to assert that the leadership does doesn’t even pass the laugh test.

Agreed! In response I like to copy and paste my first comment this morning:

“Democrats can’t see any difference between good and evil. Their PC pink color glasses show everybody in the same color – everybody is good and there is no evil in this world except perhaps Republicans!! God save us from these traitors!”

Democrats invite Hamas-linked terror org CAIR to State of the Union
…………………….

And why not? Jihad terror is–in no small part part due to the actions of this president–now a regular part of the state of our union. Suicidal madness.

And things get worse–as many as twenty-five House Democrats are bringing Muslims as guests to the State of the Union address–those who belong to a creed that seeks nothing but the *destruction* of our or any other Infidel union.

This is in response to a call from Democratic National Committee chair Debbie Wasserman Schultz and Minnesota Rep. Keith Ellison, the first Muslim voted into Congress, to counter an “alarming rise in hateful rhetoric against Muslim Americans and people of the Islamic faith worldwide.”

From this you’d think that there was an explosion of “Islamophobic” incidents against Muslims–but this is not the case. Instead, it is Muslims who are robbing, molesting, and raping Infidel women in Cologne and other European cities, attacking Jews in Germany and France, mass-murdering us in Paris and San Bernardino, and trying to murder police officers in Philadelphia–besides the unceasing flood of bombings and attacks in Dar-al-Islam, and the scores of foiled Jihad terror attacks in the West.

And CAIR is enabling all this Muslim savagery here.

Sameena Usman’s office was responsible for issuing the infamous “Build a Wall of Resistance–Don’t Talk to the F.B.I.”

An attempt by the Liberals to inject a shot of Dignity to the Muslim world again to usher them in becoming main stream Americans!

Dignity is a not a virtue that Muslims have in their nature. This, as long as the Quran mandates the demise of non believers (infidels), simply because they get offended over senseless things and/or others undermining Islam’s tenets inference!

“Dignity is the virtue that helps us to see and treat others as unique beings created in God’s image, with intelligence, will, freedom, and the capacity to love.”

Btw, the God’s Image concept is not part of their religious nature and here is why:

‘Islamic viewpoint on ‘God made man in His own image’

“Islam does not agree with this statement. Allah, God, has attributes which belong to Him alone, such as His being the Creator, the Provider, the One God, etc. These are characteristics which a created being cannot acquire.” Islam reveres a tyrannical god!

Bold comment, when they have NOT even read nor understood Genesis’ creation account. Poor fools….they are definitely glutton for punishment!

Again “The Denier in Chief” mesmerized his misfit followers again during his SOTU speech. Once again he voiced his distain in last night’s speech…..towards American’s refusal to unite and march behind The Pied Piper; in this case not into the water, but to his unreasonable and convoluted ideologies! He is hell bent in making things right before he ends his presidential tenure let it be made known!

AMERICA’s UNITY is what he wants in all things….Hmmm…..how cum he didn’t say a peep about the Iranian incident …..oh yeah…..it’s not important to know about everything …..that situation is a very part of the “state of the union” status we should think!
